...fairytale sea-pumpkins...

aaahhhhh...

autumn at sea ~

when the days start to turn on the crispy side,

and the sun wanes earlier,

my thoughts wander even more

to the beautiful sea.

the word

~ resplendent ~

comes to mind

and

captures my emotion brilliantly!

as my home continues to be spun into

  an elegant seaside style

with a twist of simplicity of the french-nordic style

i find myself creating pieces that i adore

colors, textures ~ magic!

my latest collection simply being

~ fairytale sea-pumpkins ~

i crave materials that are ethereal to the touch

and appealing to my eye

i delight in a mound of the like,

just waiting to be spun into loveliness!

sumptuous silk velvet,

hand dyed in shades of the ocean side

along with gorgeous dupioni silks

made into the most lovely ribbons you could imagine

so much so,

if i have a choice,

i will only use them in my created pieces...

and oh my!

the exquisite beaded lace!

beauty is,

as beauty does

and don't let anyone ever tell you that the inside doesn't matter!!

'cause in a fairytale pumpkin ~

IT DOES!!

luxury filling with a touch of silk,

a sweet kiss of organic lavender,

tucked within a sachet

lie below the beautiful velvet that you see...

rendering a luxury fabric pumpkin

that will delight one for years to come...

bringing with it, a love of beautiful sea ~

~i surrender~

LOL!!

i have been making these pretty fairytale pumpkins for years
and their shades always surprise me...
the few that i have shown you here
are the grey shades.
